Mixed unit preferences
Quote from Stevewoodmeuk on 04.08.2020, 15:30The UK is a bit weird; most of us think in miles per hour and miles per gallon but those of us educated from 1970 onwards think metric for short distances. Please would it be possible to be able to select speed in miles per hour, distance in miles but prompt distance to a turn, junction or destination/via point in meters ?
For example; I would like to know that the route from my current location to the destination is say “32 miles” AND I would like to hear that it is 25 meters to the next junction.

Seeing that a yard is close to a meter, would that be a workable option for you, at least for the time being? You can select this in Settings > Appearance > Distance & Speed Unit.
I'll look into this further for Scenic 3 (for next motorcycle season, where I'm updating to new map provider as well).
